About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Hot spot
For over 37 years, Sushi Den has been regarded as one of the premiere sushi and Japanese restaurants in the United States. Located in the historic Old South Pearl St. neighborhood in the heart of Denver, CO, the restaurant delivers consistently excellent cuisine made from the finest ingredients from around the world.

Master Chef Toshi Kizaki, the visionary behind Sushi Den, continually raises the bar & sets the standard for the restaurant’s high quality cuisine. Youngest brother, Koichi, lives in southern Japan where he makes daily trips to the fish market to purchase fish for the restaurant. The fish is dry iced and reaches the restaurant within 24 hours. Sushi Den’s mission is to maintain one of the nation’s top sushi restaurants through fresh ingredients, innovative, healthy dishes and exceptional service.

We utilize available seating at both Izakaya Den, our sister restaurant next door, and Sushi Den for all reservations through the Sushi Den portal on

    Thank you for your hospitality. Thank you for moving our reservations and for accommodating our kids requests. Also thank you for helping us go quickly - less ideal for the grownups but helps the kids process. Also thank you for the attention to our kids. I loved everything an will be back to do a proper adult sit down meal.

    I sat at the bar and the bartender was great. She gave me an explanation of the menu that really helped and she gave me some recommendations. I got the crispy tuna and the egg rolls. Both were really good. I wanted to try the gyoza but they were out. I’d definitely go back next time I’m in town!

    The food was top-notch, as always, but our server was subpar. It seemed as though he wasn't happy to get a table close to closing time when we had a reservation. He wasn't rude, but he wasn't really attentive and seemed annoyed. He took our food/beverage order and delivered our drinks. Then we saw him 2 more times when he informed us it was last call and to bring us our check. It really was a disappointment for my 40th birthday. I'm not sure I'll be back.
